The course develops your skills, knowledge and experience to travel and participate in environmental studies in natural environments safely. The focus is on non-motorised forms of transport, e.g. bushwalking and flatwater paddling involving the application of navigation, weather and safety knowledge. Learning experiences emphasise the development of safe practice, sound judgement, care for others and the environment, preparation, and your ability to learn from experience and provide the foundational theory and practice before assuming leadership roles and responsibilities in outdoor environmental education. You will need to be aware of the physical components and location requirements of the course. If you have a disability, medical condition or any concerns that may affect your mandatory participation in the practical components of the course, you are invited to discuss your options with the course coordinator or a USC Disability Advisor.
